We’ve all been blessed with them: breast, big or small, in your face or hidden.. Different is good! But how much do you really know about breast? Here’s 6 things you’ve always wanted to know.
1. Your left breast is nearly always larger than the right one!
This is the case for at least 65% of all women. We admit.. we checked it on ourselves. You might think but how?! Well, it has something to do with the fact your left breast is closer to your heart and this gets more blood circulation.
2. 80% of all women wear the wrong size!
This obliviously isn’t a good thing. Common signs are back and neck aches. So next time you go shopping, it’s best to have your size measured.
3. The average size is 80C.
But there are some extremes: the largest breast implants belong to Mayra Hills, her cup size is XXX, and they each weigh 9 kilo’s! ( can you even imagine?) The largest natural breast belong to Annie Hawkins-Turner, her breast are a whopping size ZZZ.
4. Your breast can be an entire cup size larger during your period!
This is due to the fact that a lot of hormones are released during your cycle. So, don’t freak out if your bra seems a little tighter during your period. Oh and fyi, during the 14-16th day your breast are the most symmetrical.
5. You can do a major in Bra’s.
We can just hear you think: WHAT?! But yes, really. In China at the Polytechnic University based in Hong Kong you can study “Intimate Textiles and Accessories. We’re kind of curious what kind of things they teach?!
6. The average breast weighs about 500 grams
Which comes down to a kilo a day that we just carry around! We’ll definitely be deducting this kilo from the scales (há). Oh and, your breast are accountable for 4-5% of your total body fat!
